She is touching down the soil for the first time, almost two months after winning Miss Universe in Atlanta, USA.

Tunzi says she has written a lot of messages to people since she was crowned. “I have written many pages of representation, I have written many pages of inclusion because we take it for granted and we don’t know how much that means to people, and it’s not even a message about being black. It’s a message about being different and about feeling that you don’t belong in a society.”

“You don’t have to change for anything, you are who you are and the world has to bend to your rules and that’s exactly what it is.”

She also reassured young girls to celebrate who they are, “I want to reassure people that my hair is as beautiful as any other hair. We need to celebrate us. I want people to stop asking me why do you have your hair.”

Some of the people to welcome Tunzi include Miss South Africa, Sasha Lee and the Soweto Gospel choir who performed at the event.
